Question:
I want to purchase a Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier. I saw the article on the parts needed for a 2021 Crosstrek and I have a 2024 Crosstrek. Are the same parts still applicable? Thank you Pat Cartwright

Expert Reply:
Hey Pat, so if your 2021 Crosstrek had factory raised rails then you could use something like the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG216 on both vehicles, but if you had a bare roof on your old Crosstrek then the bars are not going to be interchangeable.
But, If you have flush mounted rails on the new Crosstrek you can use something like the Custom Fit Roof Rack Kit With TH25KE # TH93GG.
If you also need a kayak carrier, the Rhino-Rack Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # S512 will work great and can carry 1 kayak that weighs 99 lbs.

Good Afternoon Brice, Perhaps I wasn't clear. I have a 2024 Cross trek with factory mounted roof racks. I want to purchase the Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier. What other parts are needed for the Hullavator to use with my 2024 Crosstrek? Thank you. Pat Cartwright
